GENTLEMEN:-I cannot let the opportunity
pass without testifying to my appreciation of
your valuable medicine. As Is well known
to all in this community, I was for years a
sufferer from iniammatory rheumatism, at
ime being confined to my house FOR several
weeks, and totally incapable Of helping my
self.
a received the attendance OF several OF
our best physicians and have tried every
thing in the shape of rheumatic medicine that
was recommended, or that I could hear OF,
but without benefit.
1t was during one 81 these attacks that l
was induced to try DIR. PAEpER's RnEUMA-
TIC REMEDY, and before l had finished the
second BEETLE I was SO much improved, thai
felt no pain whatever. I continued its Use,
and now l am as well as ever. '
l taks great pleasure in recommending it to
all rheumatic sufferers, as I believe it to be
the very best article Of the kind In thia, or
any other country.

devoted to those crops that are not
grown extensively. a farm of ten

HOUSEHOLD.

A PRETTY dressing for a little round
table, when one is tired of the plain
material and floral decorations, is a
covering of jute, plush or other similar
goods, ornamented with a dragon or a
raging griffin in gilt thread and shaded
plush. These figures may be bought at
fancy goods stores, and are easily put
on eVen by those with little experience
/ n embroidery, and just now they are
the most stylish for applique work.
The edges of the table should be encir-
cled by a border and fringe, in the
selection of which much liberty is al
lowed; but a gray or brown macrame
cord border and fringe corresponds to
the covering and makes a handsome
finish. The fringe should be long,
reaching almost to the floor, and the
spaces left for ribbons should be so
wide that ribbons an inch and a half
wide can be run in easily. The ribbons
may be of different colors, matching
the plush and the applique work.
SPIDER Corn CAKE.-One and two
thirds cupfuls of granulated corn meal,
one-third of a cupful of flour, two
GRkot OuC Cuplul VI OOul lAllh oib III
of sweet, one small ~teaspoonful of soda
dissolved in the sour milk, one-fourth
of a cupfuI of sugar, n ~teaspoonful OF
salt. Beat the eggs; add the sugar M
the sour and sweet milk and mix the
meal and -four with this preparation;
dissolve the soda in a teaspoonful of
hot water and add to the mixture; put
u spider on the stove and when 1T gets
hot, melt in it two tablespoonfuls of
butter; then turn in the mixture and
add to it one more cupful of sweet
milk, but do not stir at all. Put the
spider into the oven and bake from
twenty to twenty-five minutes. When
done there should be a streak Of custard
through it.
THERE is no better furniture for
summer use than that made Of willow
and rattan. Nearly every article of
furniture which can be made of wood
is now reproduced in these materials,
and each is suitably upholstered. For
bedrooms, the chars, ETC., are very
pretty if ornamented with ribbons and
finished with bows or rosettes. The
window drapery which goes best with
this willow and rattan furniture Is
Madras-or a somewhat heavier and
richer fabric, the beautiful grenadine
mesh called renaissance. A paper
much used in rooms for summer occu-
patton is plain tinted cartridge paper,
sometimes called ingram paper. Water
color drawings and engravlngs are
suitable adornments for the walls.
The woodwork should be in two har-
mOnious shades Of a darker tint.
GINGER BEER.-A good family beer
for warm weather may be thus made:
Lump sugar, five pounds; crushed
Jamaica ginger, five ounces; cream tar
tar. four ounces; ten lemons, sliced,
and five gallons OF boiling water.
These should be mixed In o vessel that
can be securely covered until cool, but
should be freely stirred from time to
time as the cooling progresses; when
lukewaTm, add ten ounces or yeast and
keep in a warm place to encourage the
fermentation; STRAIN through a flannel
otter, and let it stand to ferment again
for a short time, then take of the
scum and bottle, the corks being tied
or wired down.
